can tiny whoop motors go bad quick?
#1
I was reading a post that said that tiny whoop motors especially 19,000 KV can go bad within two hours of flight time is this true?

The little 6mm brushed motors can loose their fire pretty fast. If you are keeping them throttled up all the time, they will start to slow as they wear out.

I usually have to replace a set of the typical brushed. Motors after about. 4 to 6 hours.

Brushless motors are going to last as long as the bearings last. 19,000 rpm is pretty fast...likely they will fly fine for months (if you fly a lot) as long as they do not get damaged in crashes.

brushless motors should last long without physical damage.

do you get very very hot motors?
to much heat can burn a motor

your battery will more likely bad than your motors

Do not go anywhere near dusty.. or dirt.
You cant see it. Motors are vacuuming it up.
